Tag Test

This chapter is designed to test the capabilities of various ePub extraction tools against each BBCode tag supported by FIMFiction.net. First of all, note that this paragraph begins with a tab indent—many tools will remove this. Next, here is the set of non-ANSI characters that I frequently use in my stories: “” ‘’ — … (smart double quotes, smart single quotes, em-dash, and ellipses).

Next are the tags that should work in-line: [b]bold[/b], [i]italics[/i], [u]underline[/u], [s]strikethrough[/s], [smcaps]small caps[/smcaps], [spoiler]spoiler text[/spoiler], [url]hyperlink[/url], [email]user@server.com[/email], and finally an in-line image: [img]

There's a known bug in translating FIMFiction stories where consecutive italicized paragraphs lose the italics after the first paragraph. Well, this paragraph is supposed to be italicized.

And so is this one.

And ending with this one.

Let’s quickly step through all of the named color tags: red, silver, orange, yellow, brown, green, olive, cornflowerblue, cyan, purple, pink, hotpink, lime, white (white), lightgrey, indigo, darkblue, lightblue, blue, gold, navy, chartreuse, and teal. Here are some of the colors I use to code character's thoughts in my “Thought Experiments” series: #0077D0 for Vinyl Scratch, #60BB50 for Spike, purple for Twilight Sparkle, hotpink for Pinkie Pie, and darkblue for Rainbow Dash.

Size can be indicated by either an absolute number, or in "ems", which is a percentage scaling:

[size=24]Size 24, which should be normal-size text for default settings[/size]

[size=12]Size 12, which should be half-size text for default settings[/size]

[size=48]Size 48, which should be double-size text for default settings[/size]

[size=1em]1 em text[/size]

[size=.5em]0.5 em text[/size]

[size=2em]2 em text[/size]

Just above this paragraph should be a horizontal rule, or [hr] tag.

[center]Centered text[/center]

[right]Right-aligned text[/right]

[quote] This is a quote.

One big problem I've found with ePub extractors is handling multiple-paragraph quotes. This paragraph should still be inside the above quote tag.

[center]Centered in the quote.[/center]

Here's an image all by itself:

Here's a YouTube video:

[left_insert]This creates left-aligned text that wraps at the center of the screen. Here's some lorum ipsum to demonstrate line-wrapping: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

[right_insert]This creates left-aligned text starting at the center of the screen. Here's some lorum ipsum to demonstrate line-wrapping: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
